The Pabianice manor, popularly known as the castle, was built in the years 1565-1571, and was designed by Wawrzyniec Lorek. It was the seat of the regents of the Kraków chapter. The first mentions of the building can be found in the works of Władysław Tatarkiewicz on modern architecture in Poland. However, it was not until Maksymilian Baruch that the manor became particularly interesting. When Pabianice became a city around 1350, the seat of the Kraków chapter estate was located here, established on the grounds of the former castellany known as Chropska. Here was the seat of the administration of the extensive and rich estates, which included two cities (Pabianice and Rzgów) and numerous villages and manors. On behalf of the chapter college of Kraków canons, the estate was managed by elected canons - regents; permanent administration was in the hands of a secular official - the deputy starost, responsible to the clerical inspectors who visited the estates every few years. It was not until the end of the 16th century that the estates were leased to tenants, who bore the title of starost.

In 1082, Judith, the wife of Władysław Herman, donates Chropy, known as the Pabianice state, or Pabianice, to the Kraków chapter. The erection of the Pabianice parish under the invocation of St. Matthew takes place in 1398. Unfortunately, in a great fire in the city in 1531, the first church, which had hosted King Władysław Jagiełło twice (1432 and 1441) and Casimir IV Jagiellon (1463), burns to the ground. On April 5, 1583, Canon Paweł Dębski concludes a contract with Ambrose the Italian from Płock to build a new church. In the same year, Paweł Dębski lays the cornerstone. The church under the invocation of St. Matthew is built in the years 1538-1588 on the model of the Płock church, according to the plan of Ambrose the Italian. It is a three-nave building in the shape of a cross, unique in sacral art, built simultaneously in three styles: Gothic, Romanesque and Renaissance. On the northern external wall there is a bricked-up portal from 1585 with the name of one of the Kraków masons. On November 15, 1588, the church was consecrated by Bishop Paweł Dębski, suffragan of Kraków. In 1613, an artistic tombstone of Anna Żułowska was made - from red marble, currently located on the right side of the transverse nave. Full name: Church of St. Matthew the Apostle and Evangelist and St. Lawrence the Martyr
